CBS Films has secured the film rights for Deus Ex: Human Revolution and will be working with Square Enix to bring the franchise to the big screen.

“As is clear from the wild success of the game, Square Enix and Eidos Montreal know how to exceed their audience’s expectations by engineering incredible worlds. No one knows Human Revolution like the team that created it, and we look forward to working with them from day one to make a film adaptation worthy of the ‘Deus Ex‘ name,” said Terry Press, co-president of CBS Films.

Square Enix Europe CEO Phil Rogers added, “As the millions of fans who have played the ‘Deus Ex‘ games for more than a decade will tell you, these games catapult you into a universe that is stimulating, engaging and relevant. We’re firm believers in building strong partnerships, and so we’re thrilled to be working with CBS Films on bringing the unique ‘Deus Ex‘ experience to the big screen.”

The game has sold more than 2 million copies since it launched last August.
